Intended Use
The TranS1® AxiaLiF® System is indicated for patients requiring fusion to treat pseudoarthrosis, unsuccessful previous fusion, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis (Grade 1 or 2), or degenerative disc disease as defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The TranS1® AxiaLIF® is not intended to treat severe scoliosis, severe spondylolisthesis (Grades 3 and 4), tumor or trauma. Its usage is limited to anterior supplemental fixation of the lumbar spine at L5 - S1 in conjunction with legally marketed facet or pedicle screw systems. The intended use of the instrumentation kit is for minimally invasive access to the anterior portion of the lower spine for assisting in the treatment of degeneration of the lumbar disc, performing lumbar discectomy or for assistance in the performance of L5 - S1 interbody fusion.
Device Description
The TranS1® AxiaLIF® System is a multi-component system including titanium alloy implantable devices and instrumentation made of titanium alloy and stainless steel. This device includes instruments for creating a small pre-sacral axial track to the L5 -- S1 disc space. The track and the device's instruments are used for distracting the L5 - S1 vertebral bodies and inserting bone graft material into the disc space. The device also includes an anterior fixation rod that is implanted through the same track.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a surgical system for spinal fusion, focusing on mechanical components and surgical technique. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or any of the provided sections.

Yes
The device is indicated for treating various spinal conditions, including pseudoarthrosis, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease, by performing fusion and providing anterior supplemental fixation.

No

The device is described as a system for performing surgery (fusion, discectomy) and implanting devices, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a multi-component system including titanium alloy implantable devices and instrumentation made of titanium alloy and stainless steel, which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description: The TranS1® AxiaLiF® System is a surgical implant and instrumentation used for spinal fusion. It is physically implanted into the body and used to manipulate and stabilize the spine.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for surgical procedures to treat spinal conditions, not for analyzing biological samples.

The device is a medical device used in a surgical setting, not an in vitro diagnostic device used for laboratory testing.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Jackson:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
